Best of luck Ole, you'll be sorely missed but will always remain in our hearts and minds. I'm already looking forward to your return into OT's dugout, once your apprenticeship has been well and truly served.

As for Ole gutted he is going but he will be back. I remember circa 95 when we didnt get Shearer and this skinny ten year old looking lad with silly curly hair was bought for a million thinking what the fuck. Well we know the rest. THE best finisher including Ruud I have ever had the pleasure of watching. Left Foot , right foot head it didnt matter a fuck. Great example against the dippers in the FA Cup. One touch, two touch bang , goal. A PROPER Legend.

96, not 95. ;) His other trait as a lethal finisher was shooting between the defender's legs. He was brilliant at that. His goal against Liverpool in that FA cup game falls in that category. The best 2 million pounds any club has ever spent.

I think he might surprise us with Nani tomorrow, but it's not too likely. Groin injuries must never be rushed. Hopefully both will return for Villa. I am also wondering what's the deal with our midifeld. Gibbo and Ando have been out for a while and Carrick and Scholes have flirted with the virus too. Same goes for Berba and Vidic.

I'm afraid ALL good things comes to an end. Let's hope it is just a coma' in his Utd career. 10x Ole'. We love you as a person, we love you as a Man Utd player and coach and we love you for that goal @ Barcellona. 10x Ole for making us so happy. We respect you and your family till we die !

Haha, ok. I give you that then! It has been an emotional couple of days for me, as I expect it is for most reds. Honestly, I was more upset when he retired. I remember him missing in pre season, but I had no idea it was that bad. But I was happy to know he was part of United in some fashion. Today is a hint of how hard it's going to be when our modern day holy trinity call it a day.

Well whats the odd that we'll be in closer connection with molde now?
I can see the start of a super relationship between the two clubs
united will loan out all our promising talent to ole at Molde so they can gain valuable 1st team experience and in the process help ole out by giving him good players to work with, while we'll have 1st dips on any rising stars at his new club.. win win i think.
